You wonder: should you give your new guy a Christmas gift? You don't want to appear anxious or presumptuous about your relationship, but you don't want to show up empty-handed should he present you with a gift.

Men are extremely visual. Women over 40 must look their absolute best if they want to outshine other attractive women and get a man to notice you. Shallow? Perhaps. But a man's sexual prowess is controlled by his eyes.

How you behave on a date matters because you may be sabotaging your second date chances—without even realizing it. According to Match.com it takes men only 15 minutes to decide if you're worth a second date. Don’t blow it by unwittingly doing or saying the wrong thing.

You and your new guy had a great time on your first date. He smiled adoringly at you during dinner, eye contact with him was mesmerizing and the conversation was stimulating. The chemistry was palpable. And then sadly you never heard from him again. What happened, you wonder?

Your amorous feelings for your guy are blind, irrational and self-destructive. You pine for a man who makes you feel uncertain, insecure and lovesick and you reject the guys who are relationship material.

You MUST love yourself before you can love anyone else. When a romantic relationship goes sour, it's easy to blame your ex. He was too self-centered. He didn't show enough affection. He was just too wrong for me. Or maybe there’s something wrong in your approach.

When you chase a man, you are telling yourself: You DON’T think you are worthy of his pursuit. You call a new guy to chat or to invite him over for dinner and he blows you off. Your heart sinks because you know you made a mistake in pursuing him. Girl, give a man a chance to show you what he can do.
